When you really have the money, nothing is impossible.
Sophia still could not sink in everything that just happened today and she doubts that her sleep will ever come to her any time near. She feels like her whole body is still full of the adrenaline she had all throughout the day, that she already lost her ability to feel her own tiredness and stress. She is just mentally numb for anything except for the scene that kept playing in her mind—her and Navier signing a contract together.
When Navier said that he will not waste any more time, he meant it. He literally cal
When Navier said that he paid—he literally paid for whatever Sophia and Jelly was having, and he almost meant that he paid his side of their deal. She was so stunned that she only finally realized what was happening when she got in Navier’s car and Jelly was waving one last time before going her way.“W-What…?” She blinks a couple of times.Navier chuckles and pulls her own seat belt to buckle it in for her. “Did it finally sink into you that you’re with me now?”
Sophia could not believe how smooth Navier is. He handled their situation by answering all of the orphanage’s sisters with so much ease and naturality in him. He is just basically stating facts yet even she felt like they have known each other for so long.The only lie that Navier made is that he mentioned that they met a year ago, but the rest is pure facts and their actual reality. He told them how they met at her workplace; she was a hostess in the Soul’s Secret and how she took care of him when he was drunk. He effortlessly gave them the truth and cut off more questions into saying that the rest was history and that this is their first day as an official couple.
Navier is feeling very good that all his research did a great job with his and Sophia’s first date. Yes, he really did a lot of research because he does not want to mess their first day. He was thinking that it would be a great move for him to actually know things on his own first and then have Sophia experience it with him. It was very fulfilling to him to say the least.He never really pictured himself enjoying meeting new people; in fact, he hated meeting other people before and that was his main reason for just letting his sister Nicole do all the outside of the country work and meetings. But today was a little different given that he met Sophia’s family.
“Did you know about this?” Nicole did not mean to use her business voice, but she already did. Clearing her throat, she hopes she will not sound as brute as she did the first time. “Did you know about Navier and Miss Sophia Diwa?”Sage chuckles, clearly having the that-is-what-I-thought look when she corrected her own tone. “What exactly did you find out about them?”She lets herself inside his home—yes, she drove almost thirty minutes just to invade this man’s privacy and trespass his penthouse like the thug she is just to c
Sophia has been staring at her shoe for at least over half an hour now. She feels tired from the number of clients she needed to face this night, but this is only the time she can have to talk with their big boss, Mr. Vlad. Going home is not an option because she cannot prolong this anymore.They are not banned from having relationships as long as it does not affect their work here in the club. Other personal problems cannot also be brought into their workplace and it definitely includes school work and being depressed for something that has to do with one’s relationship problems. Work is work and you have to be the hostess mode of yourself outside your personal being. You are a hostess of the club and not whoever you
Today is a Sunday which means day-off for Sophia. She already finished all the things she needed to accomplish with her class requirements. Now all she has to do is to find an alternative for her problem with Mrs. Diwa’s “niece”. She still does not know who that woman is, but she is still on the verge of losing her home because of whoever she is.Her salary from working at the Soul’s Secret is what shoulders her daily expenses; and just by computing how much it would cost for her to have her own private lawyer, she will need to cut down at least three-fourth of what she will have this month. That is almost equivalent to having a single meal every day plus all her transportation fees. She forbids herse
Navier already realized that Sophia is someone who is fun to be with the very first time that they spent the day together. Even though, technically, they started in the most awful way to start a relationship; Sophia just keeps proving to him that somehow their start does not matter because they are already here. They still have a long way to go, but he is already liking where they are heading.He has never done anything for anyone before, and he meant using his hands and little knowledge around the kitchen. Nicole mostly takes the responsibility around the kitchen when she wants to; hence, simply leaving him waiting for whatever she will cook for them from time to time. It is still their housekeepers who cook for them when t
“Did you hear about him?”“Yeah, apparently there is a rumor that he is the son of the school’s president and that’s why he got in even though fourth years do not accept transferees and exchange students.”“I mean, I don’t even care how he got it—he got it, and that is what’s important here.”Sophia cannot help but to listen to her classmates early-morning

It is also a yes that she trusts her brother in telling the truth, but she still needs assurance and confirmation; especially from this very man. She immediately made herself comfortable on his soft sofa and sighed in satisfaction. She has done this a million times now that it feels more like a muscle memory. She did not know that her feet hurt from driving unt

Dating someone does not necessarily mean that they would just involve the couple.

When Navier said that he paid—he literally paid for whatever Sophia and Jelly was having, and he almost meant that he paid his side of their deal. She was so stunned that she only finally realized what was happening when she got in Navier’s car and Jelly was waving one last time before going her way.“W-What…?” She blinks a couple of times.Navier chuckles and pulls her own seat belt to buckle it in for her. “Did it finally sink into you that you’re with me now?”She is really back from reality because she finally had her strength to slap Navier’s arm.“Aw! What was that for?!”She was flustered because he looked really hurt, but it is not time for her to regret her actions. “How did you even know I was in there at that exact café? In fact, how do you know where I was in the first place, Navier?!”Instead of just answering her, he shows her hi
Breathing deeply, Sophia said the nth “thank you” to Miss Minchin that already made the sweet librarian laugh and told her that one more “thank you” and she will be banned in the library for the rest of her stay in the university. That just finally made her laugh, too.It took her a hot moment to sink everything in her and understand that she was already having a mental breakdown and it was also Miss Minchin who helped her calm down. Now, they are outside the university having ice creams and she did not attend her classes anymore as per the librarian’s order. She was very reluctant at first, but she showed her an announcement that there is an emergency university-wide meeting for all the professors.Finishing her ice cream, Miss Minchin stands up and dusts all the cone crumbs off her skirt. “Are you feeling better now, sweetheart?”“Yes, miss. Thank—” She remembers what she has been warned
CHAPTER 55: END OF BOOK 1SOPHIA’S POVLast night was one of the best sleeps I had and I know that it had something to do with Navier. Yes, Navier slept beside me because I insisted that it was too late for him to drive back home. He could easily call his driver to fetch him and I know he can perfectly do just that, but I am really glad that he did not. He stayed in and wore one of the largest shirts that I had so he could change.I remembered that we slept in the position where he was pillowed on my chest and as he hugged me as if making sure I would not leave, but I woke up in the opposite position because I was the one who was in his position and he was in mine.Leaving his side as I make sure that he would not wake up brings me back the memories that I had as our first moment together. The moment he got drunk at the club where I was working and that I had to stay by his side to somehow take
NAVIER’S POVI am evil for having this plan, but I will not apologize for it.Not understanding myself for suddenly being too attracted to Sophia right now; and by attracted, I really mean that I just want to kiss her as many times I please and have on top of me for the remaining hours of the night. I should really clean my mind right now because I have been thinking about her this way since we got here, and now we just finished having dinner. Sophia is back in the kitchen preparing our coffee and as soon as comes back, I know that I will execute my evil plan—I plan to seduce her.I can easily ask her and have her consent, but I am not sure if she wants it herself. I do not want to pressure her into doing something I only asked. This is the best thing I can think of to ensure that she would want to do something with me too.Good thing for the both of us, I am great at alluring people. My sister Nicole takes pride in this part bec
